Getting Back Your Life

Although things are difficult right now, life will eventually settle into new patterns. But you will likely have additional needs and ongoing challenges that take money and time to address.

For example, serious spinal cord injuries resulting in paralysis will require changes to your home—adding a ramp, widening doors, possibly adding a new bathroom or a bedroom on the first floor. You will need adaptive equipment—a wheelchair, a modified van, or car.

Spinal cord injuries that aren't as serious as paraplegia or quadriplegia can still require big life changes if you find it difficult to go up and down stairs or can't sit or stand for any period of time. You may have difficulty with balance. Weakness in your limbs may still require changes in your home to replace doorknobs or faucets.

Getting the Financial Resources You Need

At TKO, we understand that medical bills are just the first step in getting your life back after a spinal cord injury. There will be ongoing rehabilitation and ongoing expenses with adaptive equipment. You may need job training if you can no longer do the work you previously did. Our attorneys work with medical experts, rehabilitation experts, and life planners to ensure that the insurance company or jury take immediate and future costs into account.
